For weddings and major Saturday events, twelve to eighteen months ahead is typical. Smaller weekday gatherings — luncheons, showers, baptismal celebrations — can often be accommodated within a few months. The fastest answer is always a quick call to check the calendar.

The room itself, tables and chairs, standard linens, in-house staff for setup and breakdown, our event coordinator, parking, and basic AV (microphone and projector). Additional offerings — premium linens, specialty lighting, custom floor plans — are available à la carte.

All food and beverage service is provided by our exclusive catering partner, Andiamo — one of metro Detroit's most celebrated caterers, known for chef-crafted, restaurant-quality menus across many cuisines. Keeping catering with one team is how we keep quality, dietary planning, and timing tight on the day. We do work with a small list of approved specialty bakers and cultural caterers for specific traditions; please ask if your event calls for one.

Beer, wine, and a curated bar program are available through our licensed service. Hosted bars, consumption bars, and cash bars are all options. Outside alcohol cannot be brought in, but we'll happily source specific bottles or build a custom drink menu around your celebration.

We have a large dedicated lot — complimentary, on-site, and well-lit. Valet service can be arranged for an additional fee for events of two hundred and fifty or more guests, or any time you'd prefer the curbside arrival.

Yes. All event spaces are wheelchair accessible. Accessible parking is available at the main entrance, and we have ramped access throughout the building. Hearing assistance and accessible restrooms are also on-site.

Of course. We host weddings and celebrations from every cultural and religious background — and plenty of secular ones, too. Tell us about the rituals or moments that matter and we'll help build the day around them, including coordinated catering for specific dietary observances.

You're welcome to bring in your preferred florist, photographer, planner, DJ, or band. We maintain a recommended-vendor list of partners who know our spaces well — a useful starting point if you're searching. Confetti, glitter, open flames, and adhesives on walls aren't permitted; battery candles and freestanding installations are fine.

A signed contract and a deposit secure the date. The deposit amount depends on the room and date; the balance is structured across two milestones leading up to the event. We'll walk you through the schedule before you sign anything.

Standard load-in begins three hours before guest arrival, with extended access available depending on the room and the day's calendar. For weddings, we often coordinate full-morning access.

Yes — ceremony-and-reception combinations work beautifully within the ballroom or Veterans Hall, with flexible floor plans for any tradition. Speak with our event specialist about your specific ceremony so we can plan the flow.
